You can get free Seattle-area one through http://www.ipkall.com/. If we're looking for something more local and reliable, I believe we could put together a SIP gateway with Skype's business services for $9.45/month. ( http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/business/skype-connect/#t_pricing + $2.50/month for the Skype-in number.)
I was playing with the Asterisk server last night; is cost the only reason why the incoming routes were disabled?
